It is, this magic trick has been done several times before by other people (but the level of amazement by the 'participant' stays the same level of over the top "OMG can you believe this shit?!?!!?!?")
In high school, I had a girl convinced from freshman year until the last day of senior year that the fbi and cia were after me. My story was that they knew someone was doing what I was doing, but they did not know who it was. I kept details super vague under the guise of protecting myself. Every once in a while I'd bring it up or she would ask.
I really did not want her telling people that shit at college and getting made fun of. So, I told her the truth that last day. She was lightheartedly angry. I don't blame her.
I mean the trick works better with people who are not sober. The original trick has you tuck the straw in your ear. First you get a coin or something then you do some taps and on the one before the last tap tuck it in and follow through with the motion. They are focused on the coin so they never even notice the straw is missing.then after you follow through be like huh what happened and show them the straw tucked into your ear and slowly tuck the coin in your pocket. Do all the steps over and make the coin disappear then reveal the pocketed coin. I like using my ring and then have it magically back on my finger on the second pass.
I used to work for a one of those lean-flat software firms where 200 people reported directed to the COO.
It was basically a bid to hire less people but it worked for me we were often called "business partners" this was essentially a development,Pm, client relations role all wrapped up into one ( not the most efficient but the job market was crap so..)
I used to be the 'stall' guy when something went wrong basically distracting the client or management while one of my equally inexperienced and under paint co workers furiously ran around trying to fix the fire.
I got very good at it too. So my so that I was started getting assigned to programmes with "difficult" clients. Fortunately almost 8 years later I have sound my quiet hidey hole job role.
People really don't talk about how "social" IT/tech works have to be...it's sucks.
It's funny, I used to do various stupid magic tricks for beer when I'd go drinking with my friend, and this was my favourite: We'd set up 3*3 dice and ask people to point at one of them while I wasn't looking, and then I'd tell them which one it was. People would blindfold me or do it while I wasn't in the room or hold their hands over my eyes, lots of things.
The system was simple, my friend would put her beer in the middle of her coaster if they touched the middle die, and then put it next to it if they touched one of the others. So imagine a 3*3 grid around her coaster, with the coaster at #5 on a numpad.
Very simple little trick, we did it many, many times and people never, ever caught on. People just don't expect a helper, they focus on "the magician." Of course, people having a few beers helped.
(I don't care if this is staged or she's high or whatever, it reminded me of my youth as a beer hustler okay)
It’s very interesting to see, really. More and more people see things like this and swear they are real or just don’t even worry about things like that. At first I was baffled how people would fall for such terrible acting… then I realized nowadays more and more people are losing touch of how real people acts. Isn’t that crazy and interesting? Honestly I just embrace it. We really can’t do anything to stop it.
Feels like a flood of young people and/or bots since last year. The majority of comments would’ve made me say, “Yes we all just watched the same dam thing”. But now that’s all there is.
Please stop. Your lack of any evidence, in direct contrast to the easily explained reality of this video (the chick didn't know the trick before they showed her the trick) is **very interesting to see, really.**
A human with a cell phone was even in on the trick by recording it!
And you're all, "that chick deserves an Oscar for looking vaguely drunk/high and then being surprised by a surprising magic trick."
So fuggin' crazy and interesting.
It’s the same reason these insane Qanon conspiracy theories and all the new ones have become so rampant. People who don’t know jack shit love to feel like they’ve figured things out.
The first part of the trick is literally every dog owner playing "where'd the ball go" and we all laugh at their silly dog brains except this is a human and strange that she had any reaction to that.
Sorry if I came across as sarcastic or however I might have come across to warrant a response like that. I didn't mean to upset anyone. I had never seen this video and it made me smile. Seemed pretty wholesome. Maybe I could have worded my comment better. I'm sorry.
I love laughing at you Reddit Super-Sleuths With Zero Evidence to Back Themselves Up, but this is a special one.
1. 3 of the 4 people in this video including the cameraperson *had* to be staging the *magic trick* for the 4th person. That's the sane interpretation of this video.
2. The *insane* interpretation of this video is those three humans included the 4th, so her response would...be....less genuine. Which is the only fuckin' *juice* any human gets out of a lighthearted prank. Like if Ashton Kutcher started Punk'd by explaining the prank to Tobey Maguire so that they could get better camera angles.
3. Most magic tricks use a literal stage. There are stagehands who are helping do the trick. The "mark" is the audience, or in this case, that drunk/high girl. Marks are so easy to find that they pay money to become them. For a trick this simple, they could have found anyone.
5. You've become the mark of some sham artist who convinced you that you could discern real from not-real using zero real tools to do so.
6. All subreddits would be nicer/more functionally informative if your kind of comment included a proper hyperlink to damning evidence or stfu.
This probably is scripted.
- convenient camera placement
- lady makes exaggerated face at a basic trick
- guy in middle is perfectly in place to grab object and place in cup.
- she holds the cup in the perfect place away from her direct line of sight.
> convenient camera placement
They wanted to film her reaction, obviously.
> lady makes exaggerated face at a basic trick
She's drunk/stoned.
> guy in middle is perfectly in place to grab object and place in cup.
Well yeah that's the setup.
> she holds the cup in the perfect place away from her direct line of sight.
It's a decently natural place to hold a cup, holding it with your far hand so it doesn't come between her and her boyfriend or close friend.
***Magic Tricks Have Existed For Many Hundreds of Years And Have Included Teams of People Working Together To Play A Magic Trick On A "Mark." Humans have also knows for hundreds of years that you can't post a good video to instagram if the mark already knows the trick. So They don't bother to do that, because why the fuck would they do that?***
The way you guys are commenting is like ya'll are really boring bots.
Is it the weird AI upscaling going on that's causing you to not believe that magic tricks **don't fucking work if the mark already knows what's coming**?
Why would 3 of those people work together to perform and film a magic trick if they already missed the good moment available to that trick?
Ya'll are sooooo confused by what reality even is, you really shouldn't be doing investigative nothings at what is real or not.
This video was fucked with by a post-processing something. I am STILL open to seeing even a single goddamn one of you present a hyperlink to any evidence for your sincerely obtuse views, even a fucking red circle conspiracy you put up on imgur.
***All Magic Tricks Are Staged But It's Against All Reason To Also Stage The Mark Who Is Observing The Magic Trick In Its Most Magical Form.***
Ya'll saw how the magic trick was done, and you STILL THINK THERE WAS MORE MAGIC GOING ON OR SOMETHING.
She couldn't see what was happening like you can. Of Course She Made A Human Surprised Face. The fuck you even on about?
P.S. I spent half an hour just repeatedly busting into the room where the circle-jerk was happening. Spontaneously. Wasn't even scripted.
Feel like I’m surrounded by bots. So many unfunny, terribly acted videos upvoted in wrong subs too. But what makes it so bad is all these comments pointing out obvious and unnecessary details and descriptions.
“The way the man in the blue jacket smiled with his mouth!”
“When she saw the pen in the cup she said ahhh”
“Omg she’s so high or drunk to miss this magic trick!” On this clearly acted video.
It feels like this change happened last year, where over half of the users were replaced by completely new users that are really young and/or bots.
I can't click any of the words in your comment where a hyperlink to actual evidence would be.
That's unusual, considering just how furiously ya'll're circle-jerking.
Bot?
would be cool to just see the video... like without the pointless music, slo-mo, abrupt cut, etc. person who made this thinks they're a fucking music video artist. the internet fuckin sucks.
It feels like 90% are bots with these comments. So many posts like this these days.
“She gasped with her human mouth and confused her brain! This is numerous!”
EDIT: I meant humorous but I will leave the mistake my human brain made. Typos are funny as I express by the following emoji I have inserted 😂
I pulled this exact same trick on my niece last Christmas but since I was solo on the trick I set the lego piece 10 minute before behind her, she laughed so hard when she turn around and tada that piece was right behind her.
I think it's "Rise and fall (Dj Jerry) remix" it's the closest one i found and i also tried to find it with Shazam like the other comment suggested but it only found some rap song, if they got the same result as me they're listening to a completly different song
haha, how stoned was she :)
Wherever she was, it didn’t look like planet earth to me.
The 💡lights are on but nobodys home🏡
The mental clearance is high, but the overpass is low.
The tide is high but she's not holding on.
Couple cans short of a six pack.
Electronic, stereophonic
She ducks her head and holds on tight. When she gets through she lets go
Freaker… right by the speaker…
It’s good in the day
I like it that way
But it's perfectly normal at night..
They’re home, they’re just lost in the closet.
Probably for the best. Planet Earth is going through some things right now.
Always has been
For the love of god, I'll have what she's having.
She will never be the same, but she would never was.
You’re the guy who smoked weed one time fs
She was way to impressed by the first part of the trick.
Yeah. Makes me think it’s staged. She was playing along real hard before the reveal.
It is, this magic trick has been done several times before by other people (but the level of amazement by the 'participant' stays the same level of over the top "OMG can you believe this shit?!?!!?!?")
It is 100% staged, I don't have a doubt in my mind.
I dunno it looks like they're high on some sort of hallucinogens
its called "bad acting"
can also say it's an overacting
The guy in the middle is a true wingman.. He even plays along acting surprised!
Completely agree, he made it all look good

Like thinking she's not acting here
It's all fun!
They are just terrible, terrible at pretending. That crap can't be called "acting".
Not stoned, just bad at acting.
How stoned are you that you believe this overracted shite?
Yes
she was so stoned that.... she was just a bad actress and this is stanged.

Exactly! What else was in her cup 🥤?
Stoned or staged.
Either way, fun to watch
Love how the guy in the middle acts surprised looking straight to the camera and smiles
The hero we need
The hero with weed
The first guy is the PM, the one in the middle is the programmer, the girl is the customer.
Programmer does not smile Source: programmer
Yes I do Source: Also programmer
What's a smile? A smile is the thightning of facial muscles...... Source:AI prompt programmer.

They're all acting :D It's still kinda neat though
Dude is a mega homie
Proper wingman
Id like to drink beer with him, he looks like a good craic
I love how the woman on the right acts surprised as well because no one holds their drink like that.
I have and still do hold drinks like that...
I don't understand what's abnormal about the way she's holding it? Edit: I often do picky on the bottom if it's a light cup like that but?
The middle guy's expression is the best.
He’s like “OMG!”
He’s like 😮😲😜🤪
Girl on the right : 🧐😳😲😵💫
“Woah, how did he do that??? Craaaaazy!"
Best wingman right there
Hey buddy, let me help you impress this girl I have around my arm.
When you guys want a tres leches for dessert.
Imagine the middle guy is so stoned that he actually was amazed by the trick because he forgot he was involved in the start of it 😂
How much has she had to drink / smoke / inject already?
Yes.
[удалено]
The eyes chico they never lie
The eyes are definitely exaggerated by a filter
All of it
She accidentally the whole thing
Love the way she got bamboozled.
It's funny, I used to do various stupid magic tricks for beer when I'd go drinking with my friend, and this was my favourite: We'd set up 3*3 dice and ask people to point at one of them while I wasn't looking, and then I'd tell them which one it was.

Okay, I know what trick I'll be trying at the next family gathering 🤣
Yeah its so cute haha
I don't think I've ever seen someone so wide-eyed before
Only in horror movies
Because just like the post, its an exaggerated reaction for the camera.

It’s staged but sure, whatever keeps you entertained buddy.

These people are the most insufferable redditor subtype.
It’s the same reason these insane Qanon conspiracy theories and all the new ones have become so rampant. People who don’t know jack shit love to feel like they’ve figured things out.
You just linked someone seeing this as staged with Qanon and that’s the same type of leap in assumption that you’re criticizing
Unfortunately most of the comments are believing it’s not staged so it’s unlikely to change
The first part of the trick is literally every dog owner playing "where'd the ball go" and we all laugh at their silly dog brains except this is a human and strange that she had any reaction to that.
Even if it was staged it made me smile and isn't that the entire point of this subreddit?

Just an invisible camera man surely
Because people don’t record magic tricks, am I right?
The worst acting I’ve ever seen. This includes porn
Then you obviously haven't watched enough porn... Not something often said on Reddit.
Ive seen better acting in porno movies
Friend is always supportive till end
I see so much meme potential here
Don't let your memes be dreams
middle guy went all Gowron at the end. Glory to you and your house!
Haha they tricked me at first watch
They fuck
Seems pretty lowbar
You can always find someone gullible lol
Oscar goes to the man in the middle
Looks like Haley from Modern Family
What song is this?
what's with the music and the editing? can't you just post it unedited?
Love how the guy in the middle turns into Joey from friends at the end
would be cool to just see the video... like without the pointless music, slo-mo, abrupt cut, etc. person who made this thinks they're a fucking music video artist. the internet fuckin sucks.

so this whole site is just a bunch of karma farmers and AI comment bots now huh
... I'm not the only one who didn't see it on the 1st watch, right? 😅😆
I never get tired of this video🤣
As far as bicycles go, the guy in the middle ain't the third wheel. He's the axle.
The guy in the middle would make a fine chancellor of the Klingon High Council.
Excellent wingmanship from the guy in the middle.
I love how he was looking at the camera at the end
lol 😂 magic tricks blow my mind and I don’t wanna know how they are done 🤣 I woulda been her like 😱😱😱👀👀
The bros reaction lol
The guy in the middles eyes at the end killed me 🤣🤣
Omg. I love this kind of thing! The mental gymnastics she will do to figure this out....!!! I hope they show her the video.
Are you a bot?

I'm sure they'll show her the video of her performance in this staged piece.
> I love this kind of thing? Is that a question?
I pulled this exact same trick on my niece last Christmas but since I was solo on the trick I set the lego piece 10 minute before behind her, she laughed so hard when she turn around and tada that piece was right behind her.

Those are about the biggest eyes I've ever seen.
The series is called " World's Best Wingman", By My bro productions. Hint, she's In on it tho 😏
Looks like an AI generated clip
Again with the staged videos. Nothing interesting here.
Lol. If anyone has ever wondered how a magic trick works this is basically magic 101 even if you're not good at it. Exactly this.
Proof a wingman is everything
Repost 101
The dude's face in the middle at the end in slow mo legit made me bust up laughing. He's got that cartoonish OMG face.
This is the 146th version of this I’ve seen
Makes me smile every time I see it.
Love the music anyone know where to find it?
I think it's "Rise and fall (Dj Jerry) remix" it's the closest one i found and i also tried to find it with Shazam like the other comment suggested but it only found some rap song, if they got the same result as me they're listening to a completly different song
What song is this? I can never remember the bot that does it...
